Company description: Founded in 1980, the Life Extension Foundation is the world's premiere membership organization dedicated to finding scientific methods of treating and preventing the diseases and effects of aging, such as arthritis and heart disease. At the heart of the Life Extension Foundation's goals are its leading-edge medical research programs aimed at identifying and developing new therapies to slow and reverse the effects of aging, the underlying cause of most deaths in the United States and other developed countries.

Last year alone, the Life Extension Foundation funded $3 million of research, and its members contributed to those studies through their membership fees and through the products they purchased through the Life Extension Buyers Club, which sells vitamins and supplements, and nutraceuticals. Life Extension Buyers Club nutraceuticals are backed by scientific research that has been published in major medical journals. For more information, visit http://www.lef.org.

The Life Extension Foundation produces several publications representing over 22 years' of research on the latest integrative health findings to its members: the Disease Prevention and Treatment protocol book and The Directory of Life Extension Technologies. Members of the Life Extension Foundation also receive Life Extension magazine, a monthly 96-page publication that contains the latest medical breakthroughs in the field from around the world. The Life Extension Foundation also maintains an over-6,000-page website at http://www.lef.org.

The Life Extension Foundation has over 72,000 members worldwide.
